Computer hardware systems for control, data collection and other purposes will once more be crucial resources in NASA's upcoming space missions. Compulsion to provide these resources within mission payload requirements, with hardiness to operate for extended periods under potentially harsh conditions in off-World environments, is daunting enough without considering the possibility of doing so with conventional electronics. This paper examines some ideas and options, and proposes some initial approaches, for design of reconfigurable computing resources offering true modularity, universal compatibility, and unprecedented flexibility to service all forms and needs of mission infrastructure.
